    I notice he is all textbook its like he abides by the book when he throws he doesnt even try a new strategy just the same combos over and over.

    he doesn't have a plan B he never evolved, when he fought hopkins, winky, an roy no adjustments he used the same plans he has used against every other fighter he faced.

    He was never a neat technical boxer, he was a fighter that imposed his will on you in brutal fashion.

    but wow you gotta admit tito is one of those guys who cannot improvise or adjust in a fight or mix it up.

    just going forward and throwing the same combos or same punches against a guy who is awkward and unorthodox is just playing to there hands.

    Trinidad must have had some kind of pop at 170 - because Roy still showed him respect. He didn't just try to swarm Trinidad. He still took his time and dismantled felix over the distance.

    Dude Tito is at 170lbs at least he won some rounds lol, He used his physical power to absolutely kill you..his prime was 147 and 154 that was it...He lost 3 fights I'd give Hopkins the benefit to absolutely dismantling Trinidad with suburb skill. Winky schooled him but Tito was a shell of his former self, and no **** Trinidad never fought with a different style, but the difference was his physical ability to impose his style that worked for him so well at 147. I think that if it was Felix Trinidad fighting Winky Wright when Vargas fought Wright then Tito would have won but thats my opinion.

    As for this fight it didn't mean much, I think Tito is happy that he wasn't destroyed..he lost a fight and he gave it what he could...Fighting at 170 is a joke for someone with his body structure.

    Tito can still make waves at 160lbs or below after that performance.

    Roy way too big and fast

    titos legs are long though lol it looks so funny how gangly his legs are. He has that short torso and super long legs like a spider which makes his footwork awkward.

    Tito tried his best, and it was at least "a fight".

    Tito can't "dance" around the ring like PBF, and he spent quite a bit of
    the fight going backwards.

    He kinda lives & dies by his "left hook" and that is why his fans
    love him.

    You just noticed that he's not a very intelligent fighter? You should of realized that after the Winky fight when Winky hit him for 12 rounds constantly with the right jab. Trinidad didnt move his head once and all you seen for 12 rounds was his head snapping back and that awful hair flying with it lol

    Yeah TIto had nothing to offer tonight, Roy used Winky's defense and picked him apart.

    Trinidad was always regarded as a one dimensional fighter by most.

    Yea, Tito never really seems to make adjustments when he fights. Even in some fights he won, he seemed kind of limited.

    On an another note, how many times has Tito been flashed KD in his career? He always seems to get caught off balance and goes down. This was a concern earlier in his career and it seems he never improved it.

    Trinidad lacks adaptability and defensive awareness.
